I believe that's a shortcut to measure WBT directly. By it's nature, WBT are affected by other variables such as humidity and atm pressure, etc... , so it's a derived unit: Twb = F(T, H, P...). As a derived function, you tweak its scale as much as you like, you can take T = C*2 and that solved your problem.
The Wet Bulb temp can use any scale they see fit, it's a derived unit. It's even better if they don't use F and C to avoid confusion.
a 6ft wave is under 2 m and we would not call a wave 182.88 cm
This is subjective but we call it 1.8m and I don't really see a problem "seeing" it visually. 1.8 is just a bit above my eye level.
Fahrenheit is also more precise
You could use a C2 scale where C2 = Celsius*2.
it’s best to use a temperature gauge that’s suited to the air
I believe neither Celsius nor Fahrenheit alone can tell you how "hot" the weather is. So the advantage argued is not very valid: Air temperature does not give a full picture of "hotness", we have to also include humidity ( that's why weather reports usually have a "feels-like temperature" next to air temp ). This is where we use the Wet Bulb temperature [1] to describe the sense of hotness in our surrounding. Wet Bulb Temperature can tell you the rate at which your body can cool itself.
what's truly distinctive about Western classical music (as opposed to other music traditions) is it being a written art form first and foremost
I find this hard to believe, music score can be copied down the generation with some degree of lost-in-translation, they might not be the full materialization of the composer's idea, some copier may write down their own idea on the sheets.
I would agree that music score is the only means of accessing composer's works for Western classical music, and thereby became the "standard". But this would also likely be true for other culture's music, and therefore it's not unique.
I'm very happy that this seems to applied to the majority of coffee equipment manufacturer ( or at least for manual brewing equipment ) . Even big brand like Hario will happily sell you a set of replacement burr at a reasonable price if yours ever get damaged. I hope the coffee community keep it this way for eternity.
Sorry, I was comparing that to the like China, India, and also many SEA countries. If you are comparing to the USA, everyone is deeply fooked.
Anecdotally, I've seen many COVID patients experience re-infection after months on a COVID survival support groups on Facebook. ( assuming that people would not have any incentives to spread fake news on these kind of group ).
This is quite contradictory to the study. I'll guess we will have to wait for the peer-review process.
So why are they not dropping the price ? Putting out notice ? Rebranding ?
I believe the comparison isn't adequate here since the British got massive advantages after WW2.
You have to heat water to wash your dishes ? What kind of gravy sauce are you cooking in your pot.
Victorian ? Where I'm living that's what most people do ( well except for the washing machine ).
I think the same applied for the majority of population in underdeveloped / developing countries.
Human body will have to expense energy regardless whether you do it with house chores, or going to the gym, or a walk in the park.
I grew up doing all of those by hands, with the exception of washing machine, I still do all of those chores by hands now.
And I'm still only in early 20s, not some old dudes.
We debloating our computers all the time, so what's wrong with debloating our houses, and our life ?
See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2L7edwef-5k Scheme seems like a much more powerful language for music composition, with the ability to deal with fractions and making your own tuning system.
Lots of classes function are infeasible to compute, but they're deterministic nevertheless. The whole universe might not have enough computational power to give you the answers.
I use the simple https://www.passwordstore.org.
Actually agree with this person here, "only referring to the mRNA vaccines" is quite a thinly veiled promotion. Until we have more concrete evidence, both types of vaccine should be treated equally.
I think grading on a curve means that student won't study in a collaborative manners: they don't discuss solution, sharing knowledge, etc... Which is the opposite of what we want.
Wait until they start scanning offline photos, because this is designed with the intention to.
They already can decrypt iCloud photos, why else perform an on-device scan ? If not with the intention to scan all local contents ?
If what kills my enemies also kills my friends, then I don't want it.
You rarely get to build a new neighbourhood here, often it's renovation work done on already built areas. Building a whole new block all the time is simply unsustainable.
they said the H2 produced can be used for kilning.
I think the diffusion rate of Ca and CO2 is also important. Even though the ocean is supersaturated *globally*, the local area around your plant might not have enough concentration. Hope you can get someone to check that.
Might have to spread your plants across multiple regions, or place it around somewhere with low impact to marine life I think.
I hope so, the pay rate for cleaning up per line of code better match per line of coke. Otherwise my sanity can't recharge.
Optimization AI can goes into the compiler, the source code is for human readability.
or actually they shouldn't, since it can cause undefined behaviors.
What a convoluted solution to a convoluted problem, they should stick to the separated account thing from the start.
Totally agree, I cook more food, learned more recipe, wash my clothes more frequently, my house is more clean and organized.
Contrasting to a 9-5 job, I would rather just order takeaways after getting back home from the office.
I think it's likely that they directly share an allow list of each other's server to form some sort of network of email providers.
here is no “public good” from getting vaccinated, it’s solely for personal benefit
You can save more hospital beds for people ?
